On my Harken furler the line goes down through a small hole near the center of the rope drum, I just feed it through and put a figure eight knot in it. The knot has to be tight to fit into the space below the drum, but that's all there is to it.

Thanks; but I was thinking more of the actual steps of removing the old line and putting the new one in. I.e. where are the set screws? Do I need to take the drum off? Any special tools needed? etc. On my old boat, I had a Furlex and it was simple -- there was a set screw (you needed a torx driver) and that's it.
On this one, I have a problem finding how the line is attached.

I used simple dacron braided and stripped the core for the line that wraps on the furling drum. It helps lay the line flat and reduces problems in the drum.

I need to replace the furling line in my Harken Unit 00 furler. I have the manual, but the instructions are very vague. I would appreciate any hints, if anyone of you have done this before. One more thing: the instruction call for securing the line with a "hog ring". Is there an easy way of doing it? I am not about to buy a special tool and a load of 1000 fasteners to use just one.
thanks for your help
